Frequently asked questions

Node.js is required. The server can run via npx without installation, or be installed globally with `npm install -g @watercrawl/mcp`.
Where does scraped data reside?
The server acts as a client to the WaterCrawl API; fetched data is returned to the AI assistant and is not persistently stored by the server itself.

By default, it uses stdio transport. SSE mode is available for Claude Desktop. Authentication requires a WaterCrawl API key, supplied via `--api-key` or the `WATERCRAWL_API_KEY` environment variable.
